You can get lost exploring this place!! If you are looking for something in particular, unique or you just enjoy browsing then this is definitely the place. I have visited many times. They also have a cafe to grab a coffee or lunch - so you can make a day of it.

when we used to live in Vic we spent time every 2nd week at the packing house Antiques; Our taste have also changed but we spent a great afternoon searching thru the stalls including one filled with movie memorabilia and much more- what a gem of a stall, well worth the stop in Tyabb.

What a wonderful experience strolling around the Tyabb Packing House Antique Stores. These little stores are a must for antique lovers. You could spend a whole afternoon there. I ended up buying a wrought iron outdoor set that I had wanted for years. The lady in the little shop was delightful. Will definitely return.

We have been visiting this place for several years now and it never fails to excite. Well over 15 separate 1/2 day visits so far and still haven't seen it all. For your first (browsing) visit consider travelling by train unless you are certain you will buy lots of big heavy stuff to take home (a distinct possibility given the amazing range of items on offer). There is plenty of on-site parking.The antiques complex and village are literally next door to the Tyabb railway station, with a gate in the fence providing access.Incredibly, Tyabb railway station is Zone 2 ie considered part of metropolitan Melbourne and accessible via a standard inexpensive Zone 2 fare even though you travel on a country diesel train from Frankston to get there. Some concession card holders will travel free on the weekend or Sundays making for a no-cost day out. You could even travel to the end of the line (Stony Point) which is still Zone 2, spend 15 minutes exploring the waterfront and then catch the same train back to Tyabb or Frankston.Make sure to check the timetables before travelling as services might only run every two hours. Anyway, back to the antiques complex. It's easy to get totally absorbed in the main building and forget that there is a "Red Rattler" railway carriage cafe and additional antiques village complex out the back. The stall holders and staff are very helpful and friendly and welcome questions.You may leave your heavy or bulky purchases and backpacks with the front desk so that you can continue browsing without the worry of knocking things over while negotiating your way through the rabbit warrens.At the main entrance there is also a large collection of tourist brochures, magazines and information for visitors to the Mornington Peninsula region. Along the whole of one side of the main building is a second-hand book section not to be missed. No matter what your hobby or interest you will probably find the 'must-have' to take home. Suggested prices are generally pencilled inside the front cover and there are many bargains to be found.Mobile phone reception (at the time of writing this review) may be poor depending on where you are in the buildings. If you're travelling as a group and decide to split up to explore on your own you may need to send text messages to each other if calls fail to connect.It is easy to lose your bearings in the enormous main building. Each stall has a unique number, and you can ask any of the stall-holders to point you in the direction of the main entrance.Opening Hours can vary due to public and school holidays so check the website before visiting. Note that the long-running Elixir Cafe inside the main building has recently changed owners, and has re-opened as The Hart of Tyabb Cafe with new staff, new menus and table service. This cafe will be the subject of a separate review once the establishment has been registered with Trip Advisor.As always, if you have found this review helpful please click the Yes button as it encourages me to continue putting effort into thorough reviews.

An old apple packing house, this place is vast Dozens of rooms and spaces held by individual stall holders with their own area of interest from antique to vintage to modern, there's something for everyone. Jewellery, textiles, furniture, collectibles, books, homewares, everything !

Me and my wife have been there each time we visit Australia as it is just up the road from where we stay with the twin sister of my wife. It never ceases to amaze me. The antiques are mostly of English origin, lots of Porcelain, books and one place is of particular interest of me, it is the first place I head for. There is lots of old music, old 78's for anyone who can remember them, there is or was an old Model Railway running overhead and all in all, it is very surprising where the time goes. Well worth a visit by anyone who likes antiques.

Possibly enough said previously of the packing house itself so after wondering around it was outside for us to see the outbuildings also containing many items of days gone by. A mention must be made here of the quaint cafe outback of the packing house itself. An old country red rattler train carriage is the cosy snug to enjoy a light lunch in your own private cabin. Large cups of hot Cafe lattes for two, 1bowl of wedges with sour cream and chili sauce, and 1 salad roll total $25. Polite friendly staff. Cabins warm and quaint. Each would seat 4 but looked like the rear cabin would hold maybe 6-8. Would suggest if taking a toddler leave the pusher outside. On a nicer day plenty of tables/seats outside to soak up the VitD! Good fun.

Someone just told me about this place as I was nearby and I went...and browsed for two hours longer than I expected. Great idea. Loads of sellers with all sorts of antiques, collectables etc. Has kids playground (better than them knocking over antiques inside I guess). Parking I can imagine being a bit tight at times...I was surprised at how big it was and how varied the stuff there.

The Tyabb Packing House Antiques is a great place to visit, but be warned .. if you love antiques ... be prepared to wander for the entire day ..... to see all that is on offer. I go there about 4 times a year and just love it .... sometimes I find a bargain .. other times I just love to see all the beautiful antiques and yes some modern things as well ..... great coffee on scones etc on offer and just an all round great day out if you into antiques
